He and his wife published the book "Prins Annorlunda" in 2008, which tells the story of living with a child who has Down's syndrome and the deadly disease Eisenmenger syndrome. This book was inspired by their son Ludvig, born in February 1991, who had Down's syndrome and passed away on March 4, 2015, at the age of 24.
